6 Super Smart Tips to Apply Mascara and Look Fabulous

Tips for Applying Mascara - 

Do you want to have beautiful lashes that help you look and feel fabulous? I surely do!

Well, I know for me, mascara makes a huge difference and I love using it.  In fact I'd say it is one of my top three makeup products to use and wear.  But then there is the question. What are smart ways to use and apply mascara to get the best results?

According to MintLife blog, the average woman will spend more than $3,700 on mascara.

So let's dive into how we can make the most of our investment and be sure we know how to apply it correctly to get the best results.

Tips for Applying Mascara 

1. Fresh Matters

First of all you want to make sure that you start with fresh mascara.  Mascara should be replaced every 4-6 weeks for safest and best results. Now I know there are many of you reading this post right now saying you haven't replaced your mascara in 4,5,6 months or longer (years maybe). 

But don't just toss it out and get a new fresh one because I said so. Listen to this. According to a scientific study, nearly 79% of women were using their mascara beyond the expiration date and it had contamination and bacteria.

2.  Don't be Stingy

Use our transplant gel to coat both sides of your lashes.  I'm talking the tops and bottoms of your upper lashes.  Remember, you can use the gel alone (without the fibers) to create a softer, more natural look.

3.  Focus

For thicker looking lashes, focus the fibers on the base of your lash line.  For longer lashes, focus the fibers on just the tips.  For a cat-eye, focus the fibers on the outer 1/3 of your lashes. Our 3D Fiber Lashes+ are perfect for filling in those 'lash gaps' left from a medical condition, treatment, lash extensions and strip lashes.  I can help you strategically place fibers to fill those gaps.

4.  Double Up

Younique 3D+ was proven by a panel of Independent ophthalmologists to increase lash volume by up to 400% (384.5% to be exact!) with just one coast and over 2000% with three coats.  It is made in the USA and is cruelty free (of course).

Here's a tip! So, don't be afraid to add gel, then fiber, then gel one more time.

5.  Keep it Clean

Often times people will clean their makeup brushes on a regular basis but they neglect their mascara wands.  It is beneficial to clean your wand about once a week.  Here is an idea to clean your mascara wand.

6.  Curl First

If you like to use a lash curler, use one before you apply mascara. Using a lash curler curling tool after mascara application can cause lash loss. Want to try a lash curler for free?
